Other ways to stay active

If gyms, group classes or sports teams are not for you, there are other options. Making changes to your everyday routine to increase physical activity can build fitness and burn kilojoules, often with less effort than you think. For example:

walk or ride to class rather than driving or taking public transport

take the stairs instead of the lift

instead of treating housework as a chore, make it fun by putting on some music and turning into a cleaning workout session!

Try to take some time out from work and study. Lack of leisure time can lead to stress and anxiety and make sleep or relaxation even harder. If you are very busy, finding the time to relax or have fun often depends on effective time management.
